but i never told you...

...song of the day.. colbie caillat... you know.. lots of love songs mean lots of different things... and a love song fits in different ways.. so you drop the bits of a song that do not fit.. and hear the bits that do... I Never Told You... like.. if eyes are brown not blue.. or... if it is someone you love but not that way... doesn't make the line "i miss everything about you" mean any less...

i have a pair of soldier socks ready for shipping.. i think that needs to get done. i wanted to get the little sundries that are always needed to pack with, but i don't have it in me to browse a shop so maybe getting the socks where they are going is more important...

and i found this little pattern - A Whale of a Tail hat by Cabin Fever, at the site linked. It was on their blog.. but they didn't have the colorway they knitted it in.. so i punted.. and knitted it in Cascade 22 Superwash paints color "celtic" and it truly does look like a whale's tail (or fluke? i think)

Spooks started this week.. so the quote will be pertinent...
